Title IV — Property Relations Between Husband and Wife
Article 104
ELI5— what this means for you
If either spouse contracts a second marriage during the one-year liquidation period after ACP dissolution (due to the first spouse's death), the properties from both marriages must be kept separate from each other to protect the heirs of each marriage.
Official text — EO 209
Whenever the liquidation of the community properties of two or more marriages contracted by the same person before the effectivity of this Code is carried out simultaneously, the respective capital, fruits and income of each community shall be determined upon such proof as may be considered according to the rules of evidence. In case of doubt as to which community the existing properties belong, the same shall be divided between the different communities in proportion to the capital and duration of each. (189a)
